The last few weeks were a whirlwind of AAFP leadership meetings, and the Georgia Academy was #GeorgiaStrong and participated as one of the leading chapters of the American Academy of Family Physicians. Leaders in the organization attended the Annual Chapter Leadership Forum, the National Conference of Constituency Leaders, the Family Medicine Advocacy Summit, and the State Legislative Conference.
We thank our leaders for taking time away from their family and busy practices, to represent the Georgia Academy.
